| May 3 | Re-start UTAT-Summer |
The Space Systems division designs small satellites—specifically CubeSats—to provide students with educational opportunities in aerospace and systems design, assembly integration and testing (AIT), mission planning, and leadership. Members gain in-depth experience working on satellite missions in a way otherwise inaccessible to undergraduate students.
We are passionate about developing low-cost, miniaturized systems to address problems that have yet to be solved. Many of our open-source designs can be used for other amateur satellites and student satellite design teams. We are a fully student-run, student-funded satellite design team based out of Toronto, Canada since 2014.

End of summer 2022
UTAT Space Systems has a track record of making ambitions come true. We’re fueled by a pioneering spirit that carries us above and beyond. And together we enable highly skilled student engineers to continually push boundaries, tackle big challenges, and imagine solutions that inspire and endure.
Constantly seek new opportunities for learning and improvement. Do the hard stuff. Be visionary. Encourage innovation by giving others the freedom to try and fail. Push the technological envelope. Reach for the stars.
When things explode, admire the fireworks, and then get ready to make another attempt.
Grow psychological safety and camaraderie to give everyone a voice. When humans work together, their whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Trust the team.
Fueled by our love of space, we’re driven to solve challenging problems, lead the charge, and awaken that same drive all through mentorship. We strive to bring up the best engineers of our generation, and jump-start their careers in the aerospace field and beyond.
The decisions made today define where we will be tomorrow. Learn from team veterans so that one day, you may become a veteran yourself. Pass on knowledge so that the team of the future may stand on your shoulders. You run so they can fly.
